Rock the Boat: Poetry Open Mic

Whether you’re ready to hit the mic or just keen to soak up the vibes, this event has you covered.

Our friends at Push the Boat Out – Edinburgh’s genre-bending international poetry festival – host a special edition of their vibrant monthly open mic to celebrate dynamic contemporary poetry and performance.

So, sit back and enjoy, or take to the stage and showcase your own work.To ensure we have time for as many poets to read as possible, we are asking all readers to share only one poem that is a maximum 3 minutes.

Please note that filling out the sign-up form does not guarantee you a slot – the Rock the Boat team will let you know whether you have a slot via email ahead of the event.
